Media praise for The Accidental Diary of B.U.G. series:
A sparky, funny new series perfect for fans of Diary of A Wimpy Kid
The Daily Mail
Ideal for fans of Tom Gates, or Pamela Butchart’s books . . . a wonderful new series.
The Week Junior, Book of the Week
This cheery, highly illustrated diary story, more rooted in contemporary reality than Liz Pichon’s Tom Gates books, is the first in a series that’s sure to find devoted fans.
The Guardian
The Accidental Diary of B.U.G introduces readers to the hilarious world of Billie Upton Green and her whip-smart, laugh-out-loud observations on life in her doodled-up diary.
The Bookseller
The book is full of sharp and funny observations (nothing gets past Billie) and punctuated by quirky line drawings, diagrams and cartoons. Billie is a terrific character and readers will warm to her frankness and sense of humour. Move over Wimpy, there’s a new kid in town!
